Beth Thornley

Versatile, talented singer-songwriter Beth Thornley is equally proud of, confused by, and slightly frightened of the list of musical artists to which her sound has been compared. “There are as many male artists as female,” she laughs. The songwriting and music on her first two releases have been compared to everything from Aimee Mann, Beth Orton and Tegan and Sara to Death Cab for Cutie, Ben Folds, The Fray and even U2. Perhaps the reason no two people seem to agree is because she infuses her writing style with many influences and then makes it her own with a unique sense of melody, harmony and lyrical twists and turns.
